Our warmest greetings from the Pangasinan Tribal Women’s Organization, Inc.! Congratulations on your ascension to the highest hierarchy of office in the NCIP.
We are a duly organized tribal women’s organization of Pangasinan and registered in the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In response to the call of poverty alleviation in our country brought about the global economic crisis, our newly formed organization has prioritized the development of income-generating projects for the IP women in the locality of Pangasinan. This project aims to accomplish the following objectives:
a) To help the members augment their meager income and
b) To generate trade and commerce, thus creating business opportunities as well as local employment in the community.
Thus far, we are currently facilitating the Indigenous Peoples’ Month Annual Celebration
which will be held on 12th November, 2010 in the municipality of Umingan, Pangasinan. We plan to highlight the said activity with Skills Building and Development Orientation and Seminar that targets more than 1,000 participants from the identified IP communities (thirteen (13) municipalities) of Pangasinan.
As such, may we request you benevolence to kindly grant us your financial assistance for our noble endeavour. Any excess from the proceeds will be utilized as a seed capital for the start up of the IGPs for the tribal women of the province of Pangasinan.
